I am looking for a 2.4 Ghz RC Radio which has 6 or 7 proportional channels for a robotics project. I need to control a robotic arm on a tracked base. The base needs 2 channels, the arm needs at least 4 channels.
The arm uses some big 1/4 scale servos and I may be pulling 6-8 amps. I have used Futaba 7ch radios in the past, but they only have 5 proportional channels. I like Futaba, since their RX is rated to 10 Amps.
I also need to keep the cost as low as possible.
Consider some from Hitec: robotshop.com/rc-communications.html
If we don’t carry it, we can likely special order it (hitecrd.com)
